Story and cast starring Mrunal Thakur
‘Dacoit’ follows a convicted murderer who escapes from prison with a mission: to get revenge on his ex-girlfriend. What follows is a chain of unexpected events that blurs the lines between good and evil.ETimes’ exclusive review of the film reads: “For a love story, Bheems Ceciroleo’s music is largely forgettable and doesn’t add any real emotional depth to the narrative. Adivi Sesh, who also reportedly contributed to the writing, is honest in his performance. However, the character itself is riddled with inconsistencies, unnecessary style and unnecessary value. He delivers a solid performance despite the limitations of his role. Anurag Kashyap, as the spiritually eccentric cop, comes across as an unintentionally amusing caricature rather than someone who adds real impact. Prakash Raj also doesn’t have much news to offer. The film includes several twists and turns, some of which, including the climax, are truly amazing. On paper, these moments have real impact, but they needed much tighter writing to really land. There’s a clear attempt to tap into the wave of stylized, massive, alpha-male action movies dominating the space.”Directed by debutant Shaneil Deo, the film stars Adivi Sesh, Mrunal Thakur, Prakash Raj and Anurag Kashyap.DISCLAIMER: Box office numbers and data in this article have been collected from public and industry sources.
